BIRDS OF PASSAGE.
Men Seen and Talked With at the
Hotels Yesterday.

j. Fl. Mclaughlin, the conductor
wrestler, says he hasn't made any
money since he got his three months
leave of absence from the Burlington 81
Northern road. He sat in the Merchants
hotel yesterday, looking a trifle thin,
yet heavy enough to crush any ordinary
sized man. He told a GLOBE reporter
that he had lost more than $500 since he
left the road, and was thoroughly dis
guSted with the whole business of
wrestling.
81 made up my mind when went on
the road that I'd never enter the ring
again. he said, ''but these fellows
around the country wouldn't let me
with asking if was going to crawl into
my hole, and if l was afraid of them,
and in order to protect myself l was
obliged to meet these felloWs.''
He claimed that he had met them all
and virtually mopped the ground with
them, and had lost money in every
match he had made. In the recent con-
test with Comstock in Minneapolis his
share of the receipts was Sill. He APP
piled for an extension of leave of alb
sence from the road and it was granted
him. To-day he expects to leave for the
Pacific coast on business of a private
nature, but says if he finds anybody out
there who wants to wreStle with him he
will give him a chance if there is any
money in it, but he has got tired of
wrestling for fun. The Pacific coast has
a good man in Farley, and it is not i'm
probable that Mclaughlin will get on a
match with him before he returns. He
says when he returns to the road again
no man on earth can inveigle him into a
wrestling match, no matter how much
the profession worry him.
E. Ct. SarleS and r. L. Kingman, of
HillSborO, OAK, were at the Merchants
yesterday. Mr. Sarles is secretary of
the Hillsboro Trotting association. Mr..
Kingman is a bonanza farmer and a
fancy stock raiser. These men are here
working up an interest in the
racing events to come off on the
North Dakota circuit this month.
Mr.. Sarles is a wealthy banker
and an ardent admirer of horse-f1esh,
and he is taking a very active interest
in the coming races. He says Hillsboro
has splendid track that is in frSt-class
condition. and the interest felt in sport
ing events of this nature will draw big
crowds to the grand stand.
Senator A.. j. Whiteman was down
from Duluth yesterday. Mr.. Whiteman
is 4 thriving young real estate dealer
and capitalist of the Zenith City, who
has figured prominently in politics fora
man of his years. 1t is rumored that A.
J. wants to be governor of the state of
Minnesota, but Oil this point he is ex-
ceedin ly reticent and will say but
little that doesn't SAVIOR of real estate.
Il. G. Mitchell, OF the Duluth Tribune,
thinks about the only lever that would
lift Whitemau into the gubernatorial
chair Is his personal beauty.

1t is worthy of note that everybody
who has gone oyer the route or who is
familiar with parts of it, is enthusiastic
in telling of the resources of the coun-
try. all assert that the road will be
most profitable, and grand future is
predicted for long stretch of country
which has heretofore been little better
than wilderness, owing TO the alb
sence of quick and cheap transr = ton
facilities.
One part of Major Liz
fields report which will plea
the people of Salt Lake, is the
portion with reference to the minerals.
He found immense lodges of silver.lead
ores, and while some of them were rich
according to the imperfect assays, most
were what are called low-grade. They
are the ores which are most profitable
to country, from the fact that they
exist in large quantities, and their re-
duction leaves more money with the
people. The high-grade mines make
the lew rich, but those of lower grade
spread themselves more generally
throughout the community. These
Nevada ores must come to Salt Lake to
be reduced; that is to say, all the smelt-
ing ore must come here to find cheap
fuel, fuxes, etc. If anticipations shall
be but halt verified, within a
very short time Salt Lake will be
the great ore reduction centre of the
country. Immense smelling establish
ments will spring up and thousands of
men will be employed in handling the
ores which the Salt Lake & Los Angeles
Railway will bring from Nevada and
western Utah to this city for reduction.
The outlook daily grows brighter for
the new railway, and for Salt Lake City,
the future great metropolis of the in
terror west.

prosperity that has attended them, is
the result of virtue, and absolutely in
consistent with vice.
Congress should grant Statehood to
Utah under the adopted Constitution.
1t is our firm belief that the Mormons
intend to enforce in reasonable ma n
ner, the anti-polygamy provisions. The
question of sincerity is one resting in
the breast of each individual. There is
this to be said, that on the estimate OF
the Commission, 1900 polygamous
voters, men and women, were dis
franchised by the act of 1882, of whom
not more than 5000 we're males, or,
roughly, 20 per cent. of adult male Nor
mons.
Accepting these figures for what they
are worth, it appears that 80 per cent.
of manageable Mormon men had not
seen fit, through disbelief or what not,
to enter into polygamy.
Upon what ground is the sincerity of
these men to be questioned? You may
indulge in speculations concerning the
inevitable tendencies of their faith, but
what does that amount to? Does the
world live so generally up to its ideals,
that punishment for belief is held to be
as proper as punishment for practice
On the contrary, mankind universally
fall short OF their ideals. Governments,
recognizing this, and the wide diverg-
ence among men of similar thought not
only in promises, but in means and
conclusion, punish only for practice
Judging Mormonism by its practical
workings, the overwhelming majority
are observers of the law.
But whether Mormons are sincere or
not, Statehood may yet be safely
granted, since, by Constitutional
amendment, the punishment of polyg-
amy may be taken back into Federal
hands.
The Liberal party, and particularly
its newspaper organ, are the enemies Of
Utah's welfare. They are agitators,
who will not permit the situation to be-
come calm. They brew storms and
hang out storm signals. They represent
the situation as critical. They endeavor
to prolong agitation by asking for more
soldiers and more laws, and by oppos-
ing Statehood. No friend of Utah can
consistently support the paper. @a.-s
The foregoing are some OF the princi-
pal keys to the situation.

CHINESE UPRIGHTNEss.

An item in our Geographic columns
this morning should put to shame many
of our American statesmen. It relates
to the money paid to the Chinese gov
eminent as indemnity for the murder
and destruction of property by mob
In Rock Springs two or three years ago.
1t was with reluctance that Congress
voted the money to pay the claim. Now
comes the information that China has
returned a portion of the indemnity,
being the amount of six claims which
had been duplicated. The discovery of
the Implications was made by the Chi
nese government, and no sooner were
the facts ascertained than it sent back
the money. This is so unlike the course
of the American nation, and so much
more honorable, that one must applaud
the despised Asiatic as the more
upright being. Everybody is or should
be more or less familiar with a similar
case, only the parties were re-
versed. The United States received from
China large indemnity for damage to
American citizens and property in
China, and after the money was dis
tributed to the rightful claimants, it
was discovered, as in this instance, that
there was a sum for which there was no
owner. Instead of promptly handing
it back, as justice and honesty sug-
gested, the cash was covered
into the treasury, where it
laid for perhaps a quarter of
century. Year after year Congress was
importuned to give back that to which
the United States were not entitled,
and year after year it refused to be
just, the money being refunded only
last year, if we remember rightly.
The Chinese are despised and hated
people, and are regarded as a deplor-
ably inferior race; but there are some
things in which they are ahead of their
more enlightened detrsctors. One of
these is in the matter of national honor
and honesty.

ANOTHER PROMISING SHOWING.

A HERALD reporter encountered
Major Litchfeld, the civil engineer and
mining expert, on Saturday, and the re-
suit of a brief conversation with the
gentleman is presented in another place
of this issue. Major Litchfeld has
been on tour of inspection
over portion of the supposed route
of the proposed Salt Lake & Los An
geles Railway. The gentleman went,
not in the interest of the promoters of
the railway, but as the agent and en-
pleyee of a syndicate of mining and
business men looking for fields in
which to operate. His report, therefore,
is to his company, and not to the public
Inasmuch, however, as the public is
deeply interested in the building of the
railroad, the gentleman consented to
talk of some things which he saw and
learned. The information which he
gives is full of interest, not only 10
those Immediately associated with the
railroad project but to the people gen
orally in this city. He found the
country to be traversed Astounding in
minerals, and while there has been little
development of the claims, the
indications are all favorable to
extensive Lodges and to rich
ness. The country is also we'll
tlmbered and watered, and there are
vast regions of excellent grazing terri
tory. I is known that several rich ag-
ricGltural valleys lie along the route.

Robert T. Pattison, Esq., United States Pa
cifc RaillCdy Commission.
Sir: In your examination of myself you
asked me to suggest some way of settlement
between the Central Pacific Railroad Com
pany and the Government Now that the
testimony has closed, and as l am advised
nothing material has developed by the tes-
gest that the Commission report in favor of
the appointment of proper court to con.
slider the equities existing between the
Government and the Cen. raj Pacific Rail-
road Company, as inquired into, in accord
ance with the Act of Congress, approved
March 8, 1887, and render final judgment
thereon. Then the question, What further
legislation may be needed? can be fairly
considered. consider that the act OF Con-
gress directing an inquiry into the equities
erects different standard by which to
measure the relations between the railroad
company and the government from the
purely legal relation heretofore existing.
LELAND sTANFORD.
The suggestion of Governor Stanford
will commend itself to intelligent per-
sons at all familiar with, the facts as wise
and proper. 1t is a suggestion which
should be adopted by the government,
audit will be'adopted the blatherskites
and demagogues in Congress who think
it is an evidence Of honesty in them
selves to call other men rogues, can be
choked down. The circumstances and
situation have changed since the Pacific
roads were constructed. II the cOndi-
tons prevailing now had existed twenty
years ago there would have been no
thought OF substituting a company to
build railway across the con tinent
When the road was undertaken only q
liberal subsidy could induce intelligent
men to engage in it. To-day a line can
be constructed for half, or even less
what the original road necessarily
cost. In the adjustment which
must be made between the gov
eminent and the railway com
panies a hundred things should De
taken into account which could not
have been taken into consideration
twenty years ago, but which are highly
important now. If conditions had re-
manned as they were, if prices had oeen
maintained and values continued high,
if there had been no other transc0nti-
mental railway, the government would
have been justified, perhaps, in holding
the subsidized companies 20 a settle
ment in accordance with literal read
ing of the law, and the companies might
have been able to make settlement
on that, basis. Now. however. the
adjustment should De arrived st aud
arranged oy taking account OF The
equities as well as of the law. And
Congress should bear IN mind all the
time that however much individuals may
have made OUT of the Pacific railways,
the government investment was the
wlsest and has proven the most profit
able Of any OF its expenditures. An
e&pire OF territory vas opened and
made secure to the republic; homes
were provided for millions OF people,
and those people are all contributing to
the strength and greatness and wealth
of the nation. And all this for a few
millions of dollars.
